"...display their devices they no longer use..."

Trying really hard to find a use for this, and coming up with nothing.

$15?
$0.25 out of a 3D printer.

Interesting Hey Joe I want to show you my CPU I pulled and replaced it with something faster and better , as this is the one that no longer was worthy to power my gaming machine.

I might keep a loved GPU on my desk mostly so I don't forget I own it because if it gets to the shelf with doors it falls into the space time continuum.

I have an old AMD 5k86-P75, an Opteron 165, and a couple of other CPUs which were damaged and couldn't be resold, and they're just sitting on a shelf. A stand would make for some interesting decor in a game room, and some additional added weight on the base would allow it to become an effective and rather unique paperweight, especially useful for any IT worker.

But yes, $15 is Razer levels of insanity.

You kind of need to print a lot of stands to justify the initial investment of an $80,000 3D printer that can print in iron though.

I imagine these are mainly intended for use in store displays and trade shows and the like. Spending $15 on sturdy metal stands to show off components that may be selling for hundreds of dollars each could be considered quite reasonable.

The only problem is this site suggesting that enthusiasts will want to use them to show off their "leftover hardware". Though I suppose the product description is written in a way that will probably convince you that you need to own one or more of these stands, and that you will love them and hold them forever in your heart. They do also mention the use-cases I suggested above though. Here's a machine translation of one of the product pages...

The 6th display series for those who love PC parts! This is a dedicated display stand for viewing the beauty of M.2 SSDs. "I want to decorate my favorite M.2 SSD...", "I want to look at the details of the M.2 SSD...", "I should love the beauty of the M.2 SSD + heatsink more." This is a dedicated display stand for M.2 SSDs that was born from such thoughts. It can also be used as a fixture display for exhibitions and stores.
